Hosting tiers

The x402 settlement fee applies equally across all tiers. Hosting tiers gate compute resources and features, not protocol access.

Fee structure

Cost estimation

For a typical agent priced at $0.01 per request:
LLM inference costs are separate. Creators pay their own LLM provider directly (BYOK model). A shared LLM pool with markup is planned for a future version.

Revenue streams

x84 generates revenue through six channels:
  1. Registration fees — 0.05 SOL per agent registration
  2. Settlement fees — 3% of every x402 payment (primary revenue driver)
  3. NFT royalties — 5% on secondary market agent NFT sales
  4. Hosting tiers — Token-gated premium features (Builder and Pro tiers)
  5. LLM pool — Shared inference with markup (planned v2)
  6. Marketplace premium — Featured listings and promotion (planned)
